    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This practice covers the design and basic use of a gauge used to determine the total image unsharpness and the basic spatial resolution of film radiographs or of digital images taken with CR imaging plates, digital detector arrays, or radioscopic systems.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    1.1This practice covers the design and basic use of a gauge used to determine the total image unsharpness and the basic spatial resolution of film radiographs or of digital images taken with CR imaging plates, digital detector arrays, or radioscopic systems.

    1.2This practice is applicable to radiographic and radioscopic imaging systems utilizing X-ray and gamma ray radiation sources.

    1.3The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

    1.4The gauge described can be used effectively with tube voltages up to 600 kV. When using source voltages in the megavolt range the results may not be completely satisfactory.

    1.5This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
